Is it CAT5?

I'm trying to figure out why I cannot use my home network (via a 4port switch router) cannot acheive speeds of 100Mbps for file transfers between PCs. The NICs are 10/100 and any cables I've bought myself are CAT5e which is even Gigabit compatible. So I'm wondering if what NTL gave with their package when I connected is not 100Mbps compatible.

Thanks for any help
